Dr John Cooper – Class of 1979

Staff benefitted from the knowledge of Alumnus, Dr John Cooper, today when they attended a PD session titled ‘Understanding Traumatised Young People’.

Dr Cooper is a Consultant Psychiatrist and, along with BSSC Wellbeing Coordinator and Mental Health Social Worker, Jesse Neale, led staff through the impact of trauma on students—in particular how adverse life experiences can impact their behaviour in the classroom.
